You can now buy MWL photos

Over the past few years, I have had a lot of parents ask me if they could buy some of the photos on the web site. Well, I've finally set up an account to sell photos on line.

The photo handling site is called SmugMug. It came highly recommended by several photographers, including the photographer in Coos Bay who shoots a lot of Marshfield and North Bend sporting events.

* Photos come in many different sizes. The base size is usually 4x6.
* You can order larger prints, but sometimes you have to crop a little because the dimension ratio of the larger photo may not be 4x6. For example, an 8x10 ration is 4x5.
*Sometimes a larger print is not available. That is because I had to crop so much that if the picture were blown up it would be too fuzzy. This happens a lot with distant photos, like those taken of outfielders.
*SmugMug doesn't charge separate shipping charges for each picture. So it is cost effective to order several prints at once. You may want to join in with another parent or two to save on shipping.
*You can order merchandise with pictures on them such as mouse pads, refrigerator magnets, coffee mugs, etc. Look for the merchandise tab.

Each team can have up to two people who can buy photos of their favorite player at cost plus shipping. The two people need to be regular contributors of scores and or stats. So far, the following teams have contributors:
Marshfield : 1 (same person does stats and scores)
North Eugene: 2 (1 sends in scores, the other stats)
Willamette: 1 (Coach sends in stats and recaps)
If you would like to be one of those who is eligible to buy at cost, please email me at mwlnow@yahoo.com

Coaches who want to do something special with photos for their season ending banquet or other function should contact me so we can make it happen.

Half of the profits will go to the school of the main player in the photo. The head coach will determine which group receives the money. Some schools use the baseball booster club or general booster club.

As always, two DVD's of photos will be provided to each school approximately two games before league ends. These photos are not cropped or edited. Some schools have used them for the student Yearbook, and some have turned them over to the baseball boosters.

Your support by buying photos is appreciated. There are many expenses doing the website. The biggest being the 27 inch Imac, the Nikon D700 and the 200mm & 400 mm lenses. If you want me to follow your kid around for a game or two, get me one of these:) Nikon 600mm lens
